In this video, Mike talks about different items that you might want to take away on your camping trip as well as giving some ideas and advice on layouts to truly make a home away from home.
In the video, Mike has used the new Vango Ventanas Air TC 650XL Tent and lots of accessories which can all be found on our website.

Having spent hours looking at your excellent tent reviews, this review was a pleasant surprise to stumble across and very useful to visualise how one might actually use the tent and also choose the right size. I'm now off to search all your other non tent videos. Thanks a lot and now I'm thinking it will be worth the long drive to visit you. HH.
Watch all your uploads keep up the great work 👍
You make the best videos Mike! You are my “glamping guide” and I can NOT wait to start! Buying everything I need little by little...
The best set up I've seen lately.. like a little home away from home! I dont like it, I loved it.. great job!😇
I just came across this video as I'm just getting into camping. I think it would have been good to see how much space all this took up when transporting.
Trust me, you don’t need all this .. they just want to sell stuff
@@spotsandstripes2A business wanting to sell stuff!? Well I never
Great video! Always love these kind of videos to give people getting into camping alot more to think about, me and the misses started camping for the first time last year due to our abroad holiday being cancelled and got ourselves a kampa keilder 5 air with the vestibule :) we are already looking to upgrade to the outdoor revolution Kalahari 7.0pc 🤣 we are addicted, it's a shame we can't go and see 1 set up with most places being closed :( our only problem is space in a car, be nice if you done a video of good space saver techniques when packing 😀
Gives a good idea of what you can get
Love the ideas in this video! I noticed that the link for this tent in the description is broken.
It will be great if you add a list of furniture (models) used in this setup.
Hi nice to meet you x
Where’s the checklist Mike ? Excellent video by the way 👍
I was wondering if you could dedicate a video to the use of electricity while camping, I've never used it before but will be in the coming months and some advice on wires and appliances/devices would be very helpful.
Perfect
Great info would be good to see what size car needed to fit all this equipment. Any chance Mike?
Whatever size car you get I can pretty much guarantee it won't be big enough as there is always something else you end up getting to make the camping more comfortable/enjoyable. Traded up my estate for a Transporter Kombi last year and now we can fit everything in and tbh the kit stays in for the summer months so we're good to go at short notice if the forecast looks good etc. Not a cheap upgrade but haven't looked back and have probably gained a few £k in resale value in last 12 months although I love the vehicle and wouldn't sell it anyway :-)
I'm guessing you will need a rooftop cargo carrier also. For sure an SUV or van to start out with. I doubt you can fit the tent into a sedan at all.
A van
Hi Mike, this is a great video! I have the same tent, purchased from your good selves. Can I ask, what is the length of the Vango sunbeam Flexi lights in the video? 2, 4 or 6 meters?
The version we have used in the video is the Sunbeam 4m Flexi light as it works best most 6 man tents.
@@AttwoollsCoUk is the sunbeam lights just one setting or can you dim them also?
@@tommieboi707 the sunbeam lights are just one complete length but you do get a remote control to dim them as needed.
ขอบคุณครับ
I'm curious. Once you have the carpet, skyliner, sky lights set up, can you roll up the tent with all those items still in there or do you have to take those items out before you roll the tent away?
If the tent is dry and there is no moisture between any of the layers in theory you could roll it all up together but with all these extras in with the tent it is very unlikely it will fit back in the bag.
Personally I would say the SkyLiner would be fine to leave in place but the carpet and lights would have to be removed.
You really need a trailer for that level of camping unless you have a van, I have a 1000L trailer with a 680L roof box mounted on the top and a 500L roof box on the car and there is no space left, we have 3 dogs and a kid so there is no space for equipment in the car. Its quite the setup, TV, proper fridge, settees, electric twin cooking hob, we even have a little slow cooker, toilet, wardrobe, the works. You are limited by your imagination when it comes to a tent setup.
Hi Mike, the link to the tent says page not found - but it looks good 👍
Hi Mark, I’ll see what’s going on and get it sorted as soon as I can. Thank you for letting me know.
@@AttwoollsCoUk I live in the usa, I want to buy one of these tents
@@countylaw6985 unfortunately we do not sell or ship to the US. Sorry.
What type of vehicle do you need to carry all of the tent and equipment ?
It would have to be a sizeable one admittedly but the bulkiest item is going to be the tent, after that point space doesn't get eaten up that quickly. A lot of people will have a roof box which is great for things like chairs, sleeping bags, airbeds, and anything that doesn't weigh a great deal. O the other hand having a trailer is probably the best because you can leave all of your equipment in the trailer and just hitch up when you want to have a weekend/week away.
We have an estate with a roof box. Not got the airtent (yet) but everything fits in. The roof box is a new addition, but still underutilised. Was great for the bags when we actually set everything up
We use a trailer, pulled by a Galaxy, but in fairness we are a family of 5 (and a dog until last year) and we glamp in style.
that is, you say that you just move your home to the forest or to the campgrounds
The stove does not produce Carbon Monoxide unless there is a fault or lacks oxygen. The stove produces (known as complete combustion) Carbon Dioxide.
How long does that take to set up from start to finish?😊
The tent would be about 10-15mins but I would say the accessories would be a bit longer, probably around 20mins. So just over half an hour in total bit it depends how much equipment you have.
@@AttwoollsCoUk that is not bad. You can go for a week or a weekend. Although I would bring a more powerful battery power station and hook up a tv inside as well. Thanks for the tips Mike.
I run my set up off solar and a car battery ...this gives us a fridge and the ability to recharge phones and lights .
We personally go camping to escape most of the modern world so TVs are a massive no no .

Will you tell us what kind of tent that is please.
It’s the Vango Ventanas TC II Air 650XL

Roll on the sites opening - got my vaccination passport at the ready 💉
@@Azureecosse no, just living in hope
You don’t need this stuff .. all you need is a folding table a large really useful box and a cool box
It is very much horses for course. It comes down to how light you want to pack and how glamping you want to go.
This seems to me to be overkill, I'm camping as a holiday venture, not a permanent solution, Setting up what appears to me a professional kitchen for what amounts to be a weeks activity project isn't appropriate to holiday camping
I find air tents highly dangourous after owning 6 by wight example 45kg ' frown over a wall 60 meters is frightning in the wind.
Wow sorry to hear this was it pin down correctly?
@@cslewin hi yes iv been in buxton since july 4 and lost 3 an airdale 7 with me inside it swept 60 meters over a wall without warning & 2 smaller tents .the only thing was a fishing bivy £500 that stood up to it .also it went moldy around the windows in august.iv always enjoyed tents but after all the cash iv spent im having a rethink & life goes on in my van and 2 guibipigs with me fat & happy with there diesel heater keeping there houses warm.
Ow yes i made half a meter pegs from steel.
@@josephjackson5330 That where your going wrong..... Always use sky hooks.
@@Azureecosse yes I feel safer with the carbon poles ,I know there prone to damage.but large air tents are tough and when that go that go with you in it ,even if it was padlocked down it would have ripped in hi wind .those storm straps vibrate in the wind so I figured out twisting them to avoid turbalnce. dangorus with children in.i would go with a 2/3man tho .
